Plot

Windy makes the mistake of accusing the buyer, Lazy-J owner Tom Hamilton, of the theft, but Lucky suspects the foreman Dave Talbot. Hamilton is murdered, however, and Talbot has the perfect alibi: He was playing cards at the Mirage Bar where Hoppy had gotten himself a job under the guise of being the noted gambler Bill Thompson. With Talbot not able to be in two places at the same time, the marshal has no choice but to arrest Lucky for murder.
